While I don't know the full details, it sounds like HarmonyOS is simply a fork/rebrand of traditional Android.

Quote:This morning in a livestream, Huawei officially kicked off the launch of Harmony OS, its in-house operating system and (among other things) its replacement for Android. The company announced a new watch, a new tablet, and a new phone powered by HarmonyOS.

Why are they denying the Linux part? I can think of at least three people I know who would see that as a great marketable feature that could tempt them into a purchase.
